John Bling hopes for a ‘Success Story’

- KIMBERLEY SMALL STAR Writer

Like Ding Dong Ravers and Chi Ching Ching before him, John Bling wants to take his career to another level. He has establishe­d himself on the local and internatio­nal scenes as a dancer, but for the past year, the entertaine­r has been warming up for the microphone. John Bling is particular­ly proud of his latest release, and he hopes his career will unfold, as the song says.

On October 14, John Bling released the single called Success Story on a rhythm of the same name.

“I think this is the one that has the potential to get into the mainstream. I produced it, alongside Haynes Records. The way it was mixed and mastered, the whole production has an internatio­nal feel, like the music video,” he said.

The music video was uploaded to the dancer-turned-artiste’s Vevo account on November 1. The music video was directed by Willdrey of FlashOne Films in New Jersey.

Even as he promotes his new track, John doesn’t think his musical venture will affect his leadership of the Black Dice Dancers. If John does find success, he is sure it will realise more opportunit­ies for his dancers. In fact, he has already featured the crew on his latest single, a dancing song called Move A Foot.

“It’s the biggest dance out in the streets right now, and I say that without apology,” he said.

Move A Foot is John’s third collaborat­ion with ZJ Ice, who also produced previous releases World A Move and Swing It.
